My experience at Dover area high school was a ok experience I'm new to the school so I don't know much but one thing for sure is it sucks not being able to use the WiFi on my phone. Being my phone is cut off means I'm at school bored and unable to text my mom or anyone if needed too

Dover is a good school overall. The teachers are nice , the counselors are supportive , and the administrators overall are very good at their jobs. One major problem is the racism . Many students at Dover can be racist and I feel they do not get punished as they should. Students and some staff do not take racism as seriously as it should be. Not only racism , but many students are rude to others and not punished for their actions. More bullying and racism should be reported so staff can do their jobs of protecting students and allowing them to feel comfortable.

I had an amazing High School experience and feel that I was ready to jump into my college career. All of the staff from the janitors to the teachers made sure that we as students would be ready for the next chapter of life. I truly believe that without the experiences that I was able to obtain during this time of my life I would not have been prepared for this next chapter. I will always be thankful a f grateful for those who have helped become they woman that I am today. Sure I have struggled, but who has not? With that struggle I was able to become not just a strong individual but an individual who is now able to share my hardships with others in hopes that they know they are not alone.

This was the worse 4 years of my life. Do not send your kids to this school unless you want your kids to need lifelong therapy. This school consistently has bullying take place and even sexual harassment which is not dealt with at all by the administration. People at this school often judge people f...

Dover school district is a joke. Alls they care about is the school band and there football team . They dont care about the students with special needs or the other kids. Alls they see is dollar signs when the see a child with special needs. Im glad my child dont go to dover anymore
